The LANCOM Systems industrial wireless LAN access point
LANCOM XAP-40-2 fulfils the requirements of industrial environments. It is
equipped with a robust metal enclosure, as well as with wall and DIN rail mount
possibilities. Two wireless LAN modules open up a wide range of WLAN deployment
possibilities. High availability and link stability can be achieved by redundant
use of the two WLAN connections. WLAN networks can be distributed by relaying
them. The device also features two LAN interfaces for switched LAN and direct
DSL connections via the built-in IP router and firewall. Redandant power feeding
is available via 24 V DC, 12 V DC and 48 V DC (IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet).
The device can be operated safely within a temperature range of -20° to +50° C.
Without integrated heating and cooling, it ensures very low power consumption.
Both of the two internal 108 Mbps WLAN radio modules support 5 GHz as well as
2.4 GHz according to 802.11a/h or 802.11b/g, respectively.

Two RP-SMA antenna connectors per radio module allow
connecting the extensive LANCOM AirLancer Extender antenna portfolio, including
polarization diversity antennas for challenging RF environments. Maximum
security on the WLAN is ensured by the IEEE 802.11i/WPA2 standard, optionally
enhanced with LEPS (individual passphrases) and IEEE 802.1x / RADIUS. Further
security features like rogue AP detection or port and protocol filters for WLAN
complete the cutting edge security feature set. On the WAN and LAN side, this is
accompanied by a stateful inspection firewall with intrusion prevention and
bandwidth management.

Professional network configuration and monitoring
applications are part of the standard package. An optional large scale WLAN
management system provides server based management and WLAN intrusion detection.
LANCOM offers a broad range of external antennas to yield highest range, maximum
throughput and best coverage for each installation.
